Daily Racing Form – “No longer a fun, fulfilling place to work”

Pros

Decent work hours; 50 percent match on 401k

Cons

Uncommunicative, constantly shifting upper management that has failed to make good on promises of raises and technology upgrades; budget cuts precipitated by owners overpaying for company; reduced work force, which means many are forced to take on duties beyond initial job description; dying industry and reduced circulation; decade-old technology; no wall between advertising, marketing and editorial.

Advice to Senior Management

Don't promise raises for months and then inform employees they are not coming; give employees the tools needed to do job; realize that asking employees to perform duties outside of what they were hired and trained for makes for a less happy, thus less productive, employee.
